Shades of Nandi Hills (50 or less)

Same hills, same roads, same ride, same vehemence but a different thought. Nandi Hills, in the vicinity of the garden city, is a vulnerable joint for a weekend morning getaway.

Nandi Hills, situated in the Chikkaballapur district of Karnataka, is an ancient hill fortress of South India. Located just 10km from Chikkaballapur town and approx. 60km from the city of Bangalore, the hills are nestled between the neighbouring towns of Nandi, Muddenahalli, and Kanivenarayanapura. Nandi Hills are traditionally considered to be the origin of Arkavathy River. It is already a special place to be coz of being resting at 4,851ft. above the sea-level and what makes it even flexible for people to hop in, is the fact that it’s located close to the Bangalore International Airport, currently the second largest in India.

Feels like it was just the last weekend when I went for my first ride to Nandi Hills. Times change & so do we. I’m not sure if I’ll return to traverse the same path again, but if I do, I’d be glad to reach out to the hills just to find them untouched & close to lively nature. The aura shall prevail; it’s a wanderer’s date with Mother Nature. Nature is a gift & we must preserve it. Be nice to what God gave us & travel your hearts out to explore what he declared yours. Till next time folks.

Live. Ride. Smile. Find Yourself.
